SANTA CLARA, Calif., Feb. 13, 2012 –Agilent Technologies Inc. (NYSE: A) will demonstrate its industry-first communications test and measurement solutions for LTE-Advanced, LTE, HSPA+, dual-carrier HSDPA, MIMO, multi-standard radio and voice over LTE, along with 2G/3G solutions for R&D, manufacturing and deployment at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, Feb. 27- March 1.

“We strive to anticipate our customers’ needs with first-to-market test solutions such as TD-LTE beamforming MIMO, 42-Mbps throughput test, multi-standard radio and high-throughput manufacturing test,” said Guy Séné, president of Agilent’s Electronic Measurement Group. “We are dedicated to helping them achieve a competitive advantage in their mobile communications R&D, manufacturing and deployment environments.”

Agilent experts at Stand A46 in Hall 1 will demonstrate how to:

Perform RF and parametric tests to the latest standards for LTE and LTE-Advanced using AgilentLTE & LTE-Advanced signal-generation and analysis toolssuch as 89600 VSA software, X-Series signal analyzers(including the N9030A PXA and the N9020A MXA),SystemVueandSignal Studiosoftware.

Look at up to eight measurement channels for TD-LTE base-station RF antenna beamforming with the N7109Amultichannel signal analyzer.

Address the challenges of multi-standard radio per 3GPP Release 9 with the N9083AMSR X-Series measurementapplicationoperating on Agilent X-Series signal analyzers, including the N9030A PXA and the N9020A MXA.

Verify the performance ofLTE user equipment under controlled testconditions using Agilent’s E6621A PXT wireless communications test set, an industry-leading UE performance and conformance test solution for both FDD and TDD. The PXT is a flexible, scalable LTE base-station emulator used to verify that RF parameters, as well as protocol and device functionality, comply with design expectations. New features include voice over LTE test and inter-radio access technology (used in the handover of communications from an LTE network to a 3G or 2G network), plus circuit-switched fallback.

In addition, visitors will be able to seevideos of Agilent’s latest first-to-marketintroductions in 802.11ac and 802.11ad, plus newFieldFox videos.

An updated edition of the widely distributed book “LTE and the Evolution to 4G Wireless: Design and Measurement Challenges” will be available this summer.New content will include LTE-Advanced, MIMO, functional test and more.
